Hirotaka is a handsome young man with bluish-black hair that is parted in the middle and black eyes. He wears a pair of high spec glasses (due to his gaming habits). At work, he wears a regular navy blue suit and purple tie while at home, he dresses casually; a long sleeve shirt and track pants. In middle school, he pierced one ear (Because back then, the guy Narumi was dating had pierced ears).

Throughout the anime and manga, he is described to be rather a good lookingyoung man.

Hirotaka is seen to be an extremely competitive and serious individual whenever he is gaming, which assumes that he excels in games. Similarly, he seems to be an efficient employee. In Volume 1 Chapter 1, he waits for Narumi to finish her assigned work. He commented that he is able to finish his work earlier than Narumi despite given two times more paperwork.

He does not really care about maintaining an image. He is generally not afraid that others will find out that he is an otaku. This is rather different, compared to his girlfriend and his senpai.

He does not have any problem socializing with people, he's just not interested. Hence, he does not have many friends.

He smokes and has a high tolerance for alcohol.

He prefers a voluptuous woman. This is ironic, as his girlfriend is not curvaceous at all. There is a particular chapter where he is rather bothered when he spots Narumi with an unknown guy. Eventually, the pair did get together and he actually confessed (indirectly). This is a breakthrough for him because he is not an emotional individual. Although he does not display emotions, he peppers his text messages with emoticons. He is also identified as an otaku.

Hirotaka is described as an otaku who is obsessed with video games. He does read/watch a lot of mangas/animes and collects figurines. However, his main obsession is playing video games. Due to many years of gaming experience, he is very proficient in gaming. His love for games is intense, it is noted in the manga that "Without games, he'd die". His favorite genre of games is FPS, fighting, and action games. Narumi Momose was his first crush and he seems to carry a torch for her ever since childhood.
